Multi-objective optimization of time-cost-quality-carbon dioxide emission-plan robustness in construction projects
Today, the construction industry is facing intense competition and success in this competition depends on several factors. Project managers try to minimize project time and cost, carbon dioxide emission and at the same time maximizing the quality of project and its plan robustness. In this paper, study construction project scheduling considering a discrete trade-off between time, cost, quality,...
متن کاملCarbon Dioxide Emission Standards
On June 25, 2013, President Obama announced his plan to introduce carbon dioxide emission standards for electricity generation. This paper proposes an efficiency analysis approach that addresses which emission rates (and standards) would be feasible if the existing generating units adopt best practices. A new efficiency measure is introduced and further decomposed to identify different sources’...
متن کاملThe Inventory Routing Problem
Vendor managed resupply is an emerging trend in logistics and refers to a situation in which a supplier manages the inventory replenishment of its customers. Vendors save on distribution cost by being able to better coordinate deliveries to different customers, and customers do not have to dedicate resources to inventory management anymore. We present and discuss the inventory routing problem. ...
متن کاملPractical inventory routing: A problem definition and an optimization method
Many logistic activities are concerned with linking material flows among companies and processes. In such applications, we find a combination of quantity decisions, e. g. the amount of goods shipped (Inventory Management), and routing decisions as tackled in the area of Vehicle Routing. Clearly, both areas intersect to a considerable degree, complicating the solution of such problems. Recently,...
متن کاملPopulation Based Ant Colony Optimization for Inventory Routing Problem
The inventory routing problem presented in this study is a one-to-many distribution network consisting of a manufacturer that produces multi products to be transported to many geographically dispersed customers. We consider a finite horizon where a fleet of capacitated homogeneous vehicles, housed at a depot/warehouse, transports products from the warehouse to meet the demand specified by the c...
